69 is a little different. The body # is the confirmation number.
But still the same concept applies - the scheduler moved the orders around as needed. And a call from Estes caused the #1 and #2 cars to be moved forward in the schedule.

It is a confusing system from the outside. If you haven't worked in production, esp automotive, it can be hard to grasp. Once you understand it, then a lot of things start to fall into place.

Kurt it is not at all confusing. Go back and re read each of my posts. Really read them please.


Now since there was "no firebird production at Norwood in 1968" you are playing dates. Do you really think GM is going to phase in production of a duifferent brand line COLD?? No they are going to change the tag to prepare for the change. The 1969 models were produced at Norwood in year 1968, as a 1969 models. What about this is not clear??

"Once you understand it, then a lot of things start to fall into place".


Yes I know I live pretty close to the retiree hall for the old Norwood UAW. When we speak of our exacting standards of "date and build" to these guys you get laughed at really quick. Been there done that.

In the end it is still your opinion. In the end the guys who built the cars in 1967 tell a different story.
